About Web Server Software Configuration

Configuration Restrictions

Cisco Unified MeetingPlace web deployments that are customized beyond the built-in configuration capabilities of the product, or beyond the documented configuration settings, procedures, or instructions, are not supported by Cisco Systems.

Cisco Policy for Use of Third-Party Software

The Cisco Unified MeetingPlace documentation describes the system, end user, and other requirements for the use of the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Server software. Failure to meet these requirements or the introduction of unsupported third-party products may interfere with the operation of the Web Server software, and may affect Cisco support for the Web Server.

Proxy Servers

The Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Server software supports most proxy servers on the market. If you are accessing it through a proxy server, set the proxy server as follows:

Before You Begin

You cannot use the preconfigured Admin Profile to sign in to the Web Administration.

Procedure

Sign in to the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace web user portal using an administrator profile.

Select Admin.

Select an option on the Administration page to begin configuration.

Note: When navigating within the Web Administration, do not use the Back button on your web browser to go to a previous page. Instead, use the links available at the top of each Web Administration page.

What To Do Next

Setting Your Web Server Options

From the Web Server administration page, you can configure features and functionality for local Web Servers. This includes enabling Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), Web Server Authentication, and configuring denial-of-service handling, which provides for better performance at the capacity threshold of the server.

The customizations you select on the local Web Server override functionality that is normally allowed by individual class-of-service or meeting permissions.

Procedure

Sign in to the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace web user portal using an administrator profile.

Select Admin.

Select Web Server.

Scroll down to the "View" section of the screen.

Select the name of the Web Server that you want to configure.

This populates the "Edit" section of the screen with predefined settings.

Configure the following parameters in the "Web Server Specific" section.

Note: The hostname was populated during the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Server software installation. The [[Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Release 8.0 -- Web Administration References for Cisco Unified MeetingPlace#Hostname [Home Page]|Hostname [Home Page]]] was assigned the first (Local Area Connection) IP address in the operating system. If you upgraded from Release 7.0 to Release 8.0, then the [[Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Release 8.0 -- Web Administration References for Cisco Unified MeetingPlace#Hostname [Web Conferencing]|Hostname [Web Conferencing]]] was assigned the second (Local Area Connection 2) IP address in the operating system. You should not need to redefine these unless you want users to be able to access the Web Server by using the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the server or you plan to configure SSL for this server. If enabling SSL, you must use hostnames rather than IP addresses.

Configuring a Site

Procedure

Sign in to the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace web user portal using an administrator profile.

Select Admin.

Select Site.

From the "View" section of the page, select the name of the site you want to configure.

Information about this site populates the "Edit" section of the page.

Select field options to configure the site.

The Site Name entry on the Site administration page must match the Web Server Name entry on the Web Server administration page. This must be consistent for each site. If these entries do not match, searches will not display the same site name.

Select Yes for all parameters in the Site Customization Default Values section.

Choosing Yes synchronizes all of the Web Servers in this site to share the same parameters.

Select Submit.

Repeat Step 4 through Step 7 for each remaining site listed in the "View" section of the Site administration page.

Troubleshooting Tips

To delete a site from your image, select it and select Delete. You can only delete external sites from an image.
